Default RE: 221 fireball

Thanks for the imput,
I guess i should say that i am looking at buying a custom 221 fireball for several purposes from a longer than 22lr range gun for a walking gun on small game and pest animals on my property to a predator gun for calling. Most of my shots will be inside 200. I just wanted to be assured that caliber could take a coyote at 300yds with a good shot.Some of the sites that said 125 yd max for coyotes made me nervous about the caliber.Im not looking for a 500yd gun i would get a 22-250 if i was that concerned, just a low recoil low noise gun that i can hunt with and my girlfriend can lean to shoot a rifle with. I shoot 2000+ 22 shels a year plinking and run 100 rounds through my 7mm mag a year with high percentage hits on 6" ballons at 400 yards 18"hold over with shooting stix. Also i have found ballistic tables for the 221 50gr for remington rounds does anyone know were i could find a table for the 40gr nosler loads or have any expirience with them on game.
